Where has AMEE sourced the information for my company?

We aggregate data from a variety of the country’s leading business information providers, for example Creditsafe, Companies House and Open Corporates. We estimate carbon emissions data for companies which have not yet publicly measured or disclosed this information. For more information on where we source our data please refer to our FAQ.

What can I do if the information on my company is incorrect?

If any of the information that we hold on your company is incorrect then you can update it for free by clicking the “Update Company Information” button. Updating information is quick and easy, the only requirement is that you are authorised to do so by your company.

What financial insights can I buy?

What does the ‘CO2 Emissions’ tab refer to?

This is the carbon footprint of your company, measured in tonnes of CO2 emissions. To understand your footprint in more detail it is possible to break it down into three different components:

Scope 1 includes the emissions from fuel burned on site (for example a gas boiler) or by company vehicles.

Scope 2 refers to the energy that you buy (most typically electricity).

Scope 3 refers to all the other emissions relating to your business, such as employee travel and commuting, waste disposal, and the production of purchased materials.

What determines my Environmental Rank?

Companies are ranked based on their annual carbon emissions divided by their annual turnover. To ensure fairness we have ranked your company against other companies of a similar size and line of business. In time we will include water use and waste generation when calculating a company’s Environmental Rank.

What do I need to update my Environmental Rank?

You can calculate your company’s carbon footprint by referring to utility bills to find out how many units (kWh) of gas and electricity you use each year. You can then use our calculator to convert these kWh to tonnes of carbon emissions. The calculator will also help you estimate the carbon emissions from company vehicles, provided you know how many miles they have covered.
